Disappointing news on the road to London 2012. Out gymnast Josh Dixon was not named to the men's gymnastics team after the three-day 2012 U.S. Olympic Gymnastics Team Trials in San Jose. Dixon was also not named as one of three alternates.

Dixon finished 13th out of 15 competitors. R20 faves John Orozco and Dannell Leyva were named to the Olympic team.

It's still a huge accomplishment for the gymnast. Dixon was recently named to the U.S. Senior Men’s National Team. Advancing to the Olympic trials was a huge accomplishment, not to mention publicly coming out during the process.
